The Temps de la parole invite visitors to take their place within the installation Parliament of Ghosts, conceived as a space of exchange and an agora. These gatherings bring together the artists of the exhibition as well as guest artists in dialogue with the practice of Ibrahim Mahama, art schools and partner institutions.
The installation Parliament of Ghosts is a space where invisible memories continue to circulate, where forgotten gestures remain present in bodies and materials. For this activation, the Maison Mode Méditerranée imagines Les Voix du geste, an encounter between contemporary creation and living heritages.Three creators from the Mediterranean and Africa give voice to what underpins every work: the gesture, the know-how and the transmission.
Through their accounts, speech becomes matter, gesture becomes memory and transmission becomes creation.
